Low idle and running rich

No, it never backfired. It just began idling extremely rough, and clunking as it ran. Weird thing is i disconnected the ISC started it, it idled better, small amount of clunking, but at least it wasnt dying. Later on, I put the connector back on and it kept running ok.

It seems that when its warmed up, the engine just cant live, i would assume this is due to the BHG, but I also believe I have a vaccuum leak based on what others are saying, or a hose is borked somewhere, or not connected to the right place. I will hopefully getting it to a trusted mechanic soon...thanks all for your help...sorry i am such a bother.. >_<
